W.P. Indian Health Center To Be Built
There will be a ground breaking ceremony for the Woir Point Indian Health Center Construction Project. Thmugh the P.I.. 93-638 Contract Process, the Fort Peck Tribes will construct this facility. The A & S Development and Construction Co., a Tribal entity, will administer, monitor and supervise all phases of actual construction. The ceremony is scheduled for Tuesday, August 23, 1988, at 10:00 a.m. at the construction site in Wolf Point. A luncheon/ reception is scheduled to follow. The 18,213 square foot health center is finally becoming a reality for an estimated 3000 Wolf Point, Praser and Oswego Indian Health Service are residents. The Center will function as a comprehensive, curative and preventive health care outpatient facility. This project has been approximately ten (10) years in the making.

Open Container to be Enforced
Drinking alcoholic beverages out in the open in public places is being banned. The BIA Law Enforcement will carry out the enforcement of the open container law to the fullest extent. The tribal prosecutor told the police to "just cite" those with violating the law, but he wanted enforcement. People can De arrested for this violation. A discussion was held on the possibility of closing down the Dago Bend area in Poplar to drinking parties, and attempting to do the same for the Poplar American Legion Park. Tribal attornies will be drafting amendments to the open container law to this effect and to include a ban on all alcoholic beverages in open, public places. The law now prohibits "intoxicating beverages" that contains more than .5 percent alcohol. Open containers are getting out of hand, with broken bottles and cans littering the streets and other areas across the reservation. Property is being destroyed at Drinking parties, trees are being burned and chopped down, said Captain Dale Headdress.

This van carries patients every Monday to the Miles City VA Medical Center in Miles City where they are seen by the medical people of the hospital on Mondays and Tuesdays-the van returns on Tuesday, its route begins in Glasgow with stops in Wolf Point, Poplar, Cul-bertson and Glendive.
